Whats goin on fellas,

I figured I would just post this stuff to see what you guys thought about it before I purchase it... for right now im just gonna get my cd player, subs and amp and later on when I save more money I'm gonna get some components and 6x9s...so here it is

Deck - Alpine 9833

Amp - Diamond D5 1200.1

Subs - Diamond M6 Mark II 15s (ported) and I plan on cutting a hole in the rear deck so the air moves more freely

by the way its gonna be in a 96 caprice....also I'm still new to this stuff so would I get the D2 or D4???

thanx a lot,

okay sounds great besides the IMA CUT A HOLE IN THE REAR DECK SO MORE AIR MOVES,,, you gonna have to make a port,,, so that it is tuned properly,, just cutting out a hole is gonna make it sound like ****,,,, with those nice subs and nice amp, im shure you want your **** to sound good,,, so i would just make a custom port,,,

DUAL 4 ohm subs,,, so that way each sub will get 600 watts,,, and you can wire them into 1 ohm,,,,, very easy,, and will sound very nice

your welcome...

well I guess I should have said the place I'm getting my stuff installed at is gonna do that....but then again its not gonna be a direct port from the box...I dunno if that made sense or anything but I talked to one guy at a local shop and he said the bigger the better for the whole in the rear deck.... so I dunno

umm no,,, if your installers are telling you that,,, then i think you need to go get a different opinion

just because the hole is bigger dont mean its gonna be louder,,, it might sound louder but will sound like ****,,, a box has to be tuned properly.

I'm not talking about porting the box through the rear deck I plan on having the subs firing back and he just said to cut a hole in the rear deck so the air would move more freely like I said earlier....the box is gonna be done right

dont mess around with cuttin a hole in the rear deck just put the subs in a pretty good size ported box and you shouldnt need to cut a hole the sound will still come through

In my brothers Jetta we cut holes in the rear deck, and the bass was noticeably louder afterwards. His trunk was all sound deadened.
